Ten useful sites

One of the residential assignments was to explore ten useful educational websites for teachers. I was thoroughly confused. My effort in trying to get help from friends confused me more. Each gave me a different meaning. Some said URL is a website. Some clarified if there is .com at the end it is a website. I was asking the difference between webpage and website. Some even stated that web address is the web site. Finally I asked one of our tutors and he gave me a clear picture of it. Searching for a standard definition from the internet, it states that it is a group of World Wide Web pages usually containing hyperlinks to each other and made available online.

 This activity gave us an opportunity to explore useful educational sites. I was more than happy because I could get into websites not known to me. My focus was more on the teachers’ websites because deep down my conscience tells me those are going to help me. Most of them are related to my work and my subjects. From the various websites we can get inspiring and valuable ideas that are related to our profession. The materials are abundant and they are really going to save time. Knowing the right websites is more than important as it will lead us to the right thing we are looking for. Thus I must assure here that this activity was really enriching and I am going to share this little knowledge with other friends who do not know it. Looking for information from the trusted websites gives us authentic information. They take us to something we never know about it. Making use of them can really enhance our teaching and learning. Let us all make use of them, explore better websites and share with one another.
